My dear Sina,
I have been awaiting this day 30 for 30 days now. I so wondered what you would do next, and what your conclusions might be. Your deep thoughts above hardly come as a surprise, with all your questions so typically you and not so atypical of many good Steemians who care about what they post, why they post, how and when they post. Only there aren't that many to begin with....
I hope you answer your questions soon, right here where we may follow you and your artistic pursuits. Or elsewhere.... that also counts if only for one. I hope my following has helped to motivate you to keep on writing! Pity I don't come with lots of additional following....
I started writing here just for one sister soul who would never read me at all, now I've picked up a new fellow soul, who is practically living with me. Funny how Steemit has worked out for me. This fellow swears never to have any dealings at all with Steemit for his negative experiences (and much malicious loss of Steem). Our mutual friend and follower KL is in two minds with similar questions to yourse about what to do next.
What Steemit does seems to be done best small scale and without financial ambitions; these seem doomed (the Hive seems a stronger coin, but I'm not getting the vibe on the platform). It's sad how we can't live off what we love to do, unlike some YouTubers who go camping and video it or macramé themselves rich (but I doubt they do eventhough they have 12K followers).
What makes you a strong blogger is that you never sell yourself. You share and care rather.
Whatever you decide to do next, don't disappear into an uncreative slump. In any case you have added a unique link to this blockchain which counts and I believe offers the necessary counterweight to some dreadful things that may still happen on blockchain in general.
Actually after this experiment, I am motivated to post more frequently, maybe not exactly one post per day but something close.
Your comments give me courage for sure.
I'll try not to do that...
